I have a short somewhere in my starter wire. Figured id just put in a push button. I'm not gonna mess with doing ignition toggles and such. Just gonna use the key to turn it on and the button to start. The starter buttons I've looked at have 2 terminals. So should I have 12v from the battery and the positive from the starter on one terminal and the other terminal just to a ground? (Prolly throw a fuse on the battery wire too).

Gee oh Dee

I'd search. Pretty sure its been covered.

I did it, cause my relay went out... Anyway I just rerouted the remote wire to the button with the fuse before the button.

The thinner gage wire (usually green or blue) that goes to your starter relay, might also be knows as a relay wire ect...

I need the key which is good cause I never lock my XJ... they can have the cheap radio & CB, but everything else the punks better bring a good assortment of wrenchs! Haha

Gee oh Dee

The key should also unlock the steering wheel if it locks.
